Stop Galilee coal

Australia’s reliance on coal as an export has contributed to the further disrespect of the rights of Aboriginal communities, caused adverse health impacts, has destroyed local ecological communities and is ultimately leading to climate disruption. The power of the mining lobby has subverted our democracy to the point that governments are enlisted in support of mining interests.

At this point in time ARRCC is very concerned about the support being given by both the federal and Queensland governments for proposals for greatly expanded coal mining and associated rail line and coal port expansion in Queensland and especially the Adani Company’s proposed Carmichael Coal Mine and Rail Project.
